| More garbage dumped at Irisan despite TEPO |
The city government of Baguio continues to dump fresh garbage at the Irisan dumpsite, claiming it has 10 days or until Feb. 2 to file a motion of clarification on a Supreme Court en banc order stopping the use of the facility either as a staging or storage area.

| STILL DUMPING -- Despite pronouncements of the city mayor, two dump trucks were observed unloading freshly collected garbage at the Irisan dumpsite within a span of one hour last Thursday. A backhoe was employed to spread the trash around. ProTech might be duping the city or might be covertly working for the mayor’s suspension for openly defying the Supreme Court’s order to cease using the facility as a transfer station.
